The best show on NBC (sorry Earl and Office) returned tonight. It's a great show that has been, like most funny and original shows, overlooked by the masses. It was nominated for best comedy this past year. I highly recommend it.

As an added bonus, Sarah Chalke is looking real good lately too.

Scrubs return eases my pain over the likely demise of Arrested Developement. That said, I found last nights shows to be a little bit of a let down. I can't quite put my finger on the problem but the vibe was different. Although I do appreciate that fact that they let a chick fart on TV.

Irascible Yankee Fan

I was so happy to see Scrubs back last night, and I was not disappointed with either episode.

I am rarely disappointed with this show, and hope the ratings improve so we get a full season next year.

I like the show, but I agree that it was good but not the greatest last night.

I expect the next few episodes to be more up to par. I think the wait led to the mild letdown.

This is a good show, but I just can't find time to watch it.

My problem is that sports overtakes anything on TV. So for six months in the summer, I watch literally nothing else during primetime. So I don't build up a loyalty to certain shows.

Even during the MLB off-season, there's Sunday and Monday night football and other various sporting events that interrupt regular viewing too often.

Plus, most of the stuff is crap on TV anyway. If there was a set lineup that I enjoyed, I would probably get into a rythm. But since Scrubs and According to Jim (don't ask -- I don't even know why) are the only two shows I can even watch, I don't get into any sort of primetime sitcom viewing rhythm.

The only stuff I watch are the reruns, which I watch before primetime and sometimes after primetime, when I'm home. But even those post-prime shows I often miss becuase I'm out.

The only thing that I'm usually home for, awake for, and enjoy are the late, late shows like the rerun of Conan and Family Guy and Futurama. But even those I sometimes miss due to nights out on the town.

EDIT: Wow, talk about rambling. I hope you all enjoyed this in-depth analysis of my entire tv-viewing habits.

Can we just chalk this up to a 3:30 AM post and move on?

I tried to get into this show when it first started airing...but I can't. I don't know if it just isn't my type of humor, or if I just expect a show with doctors to be more dramatic. But it doesn't work for me. I like Zach Braff quite a bit, though.

Dr Cox ,sorry forgot his real name was interviewed by ESPN radio last year and said he was a huge Yankee fan.I wish he would trade in the Red Wing Jersey for a Yankee one . :D

In a "Wizard of Oz" homage, J.D. is tries to go home, Turk searches for a heart donor and Carla worries that she doesn't have the courage to become a parent. Meanwhile, Eliot doesn't believe she has the brains to lead a question and answer session. The Janitor is is painting color-coded lines throughout the hospital for easier navigation.

I just watched the episode from this week that I had Tivo'd. So is this the end for Dr. Cox? He's easily the best character on that show (or one of the best characters of any show), and it would be really sad if he wasn't part of the show anymore. I thought I had read that the ratings were up for Scrubs this year, and that the actor who plays him (John McGinley) really loved playing Dr. Cox. I haven't done any research on this, but I would think I would have heard something about him leaving the show. Or maybe it's just part of a dramatic suspense-building story line for May sweeps? Eh, who knows...

Anyone have any ideas?

Jim F.

05-02-06, 09:20 AM

What happened?In a nutshell, JD loses a patient. Cox takes JD to lunch to comfort him, tells him he's seen doctors never come back after blaming themselves for a patient dying, that JD is too good of a doctor for that to happen to. JD buys it. A few twists and turns later, Cox loses a patient, looks distraught, and starts to walk out of the ER. JD says "just like you told me, if you leave you might never come back", and Cox says words to the effect of "yeah, I know...", and shuts the door behind him and walks away. Roll credits...

Further proof of the dumbing down of America. Apparantly we really need to be told when to laugh (laugh track).

Arrested Development
Sports Night
Scrubs

all cancelled because the rubes don't "get it" when they each had the best writing of any other show on at the same time. Just because there's no fake laughs doesn't mean it's not funny.

Scrubs, Office and 30 Rock are funnier then anything on any other network right now. Glad NBC is bringing comedies back.

Shoulda thought of it last week, but Sarah Chalke (http://images.askmen.com/galleries/actress/sarah-chalke/pictures/sarah-chalke-picture-4.jpg) could be in the HFC.

I have been pretty into Heroes but it's on hiatus until January and I think it's going to run against 24 when it does come back. Between the two I would definitely choose 24. Hell, I would choose 24 over anything else! Luckily I have DVR and TiVo so I don't have to choose.

Grey's Anatomy is awesome too. Men in Trees is not bad. It's on after Grey's Anatomy now. It's like Northern Exposure but a little more girly. Brothers & Sisters is pretty good too.

Man, I watch waaaaay too much TV!:eek:

What?! Only one more season?! NO!!!! :( :(

My fiance and I love this show and watch re-runs whenever we can catch them. Comedy Central, WGN, anywhere we can find them - they're on. This show rules. I think it's the best show on TV these days. (I can't stand either 24 or Lost.)

I will be so sad to see this show end.

From what I hear, everyone on the set thinks Braff wil re-sign for another year and Scrubs will have one more season after this one. I don't think there is any offical word yet, but the deal would make him one of the highest paid actors on television.

I heard it might move to ABC for it's final season. That would make perfect sense given NBC's horrible decisionmaking the past few years. They finally have a good night of comedy and seems like they can't break it up fast enough.

Why did they take The Office and 30 Rock off for 5 weeks like this?

I'll admit that I only started watching Scrubs when they were on Comedy Central about 6 months ago. I don't think it would be a terrible idea to move Scrubs to ABC, considering that didn't start doing new episodes until after Thanksgiving this year. For some reason, Scrubs isn't even on this Thursday. Instead, they've got 5 episodes of The Office and one episode of that show with Andy Richter.

The Todd stopped being funny after season 1. I agree. I'm not a big fan. On the other hand, I love "Barbie", Dr Cox, Turk, Dr Kelso, and the janitor. I'd be all for a spinoff for any of those characters.

The best Todd moment IMO was I think the second season, when JD was talking about all of the decisions we need to make and The Todd says...

"Take a dookie before I work out, or after I work out...AFTER!"

And then goes on to poop his pants while lifting waits.

Ah, I love this show...

The Todd is the best one line TV character I've ever seen. And I disagree that he stopped being funny after Season One. I think he's just as funny now as he's ever been.

He's just a one joke character though. And on a show full of characters that are really deep and with great development, he hasn't changed since day one. Just the meathead/oversexed goof.

That's the beauty in the second tier characters like Todd, Lavern, Ted, Doug, etc. The main core of characters is so great, they can be used for funny one line gags whenever the plot allows. Kind of like a talented bench on a baseball team.

The last episode (the one before tonight's) ended with news that Laverne was in a serious car accident and was in a coma.

Tonight's show began with how the cast dealt with the shocking news with different impulsive actions. Cox shaved his head because "no one liked his haircut anyway, so now they all can suck it."

I heard rumors that JD and Elliot are going to renew their relationship at the end of the season. Though I don't know where Kim (who is still pregnant with JD's kid) is going to fit in if that's indeed true. This kind of stuff isn't really what makes Scrubs great IMO, however JD and Elliot have been "inactive" for so long now, it will surely give the plot some extra flavor I think.

Good question. She dumped her other BF, so who knows. Then again, there's the whole Kim thing. But like I said, it's just a rumor.

That kind of sucks to hear. The impression I've been getting until reading the article was that Scrubs would be back for one more season regaurdless NBC picked it up for Season 7, because ABC would if they didn't. Now I don't know.

I can't remember the last time I enjoyed an episode so much. I liked when they were at the conference and Kim asks if there are any questions, and JD's the only one, with his arm raised as high as it could go. The Dr. Toilet stuff was halarious. And also,
Dr. Cox: "I won't be able to make it that day."
Elliot: "Why not?"
Dr. Cox: "Because I wouldn't go to your wedding if it was held in my backyard."

Then again, it could've been a big set-up to make us think they're getting back together, when in reality they'll realize that they're with the right people now.

I was watching the Yankee game Thursday night and deciding to check the on screen cable guide to see what the next Scrubs episode was about at about 9 p.m. and find out that Scrubs was on at 8:30.

I think the Janitor might have turned into the funniest character on the show. And 2. I find myself becoming one of those highly annoying sitcom viewers who keep waiting for two characters (JD and Elliot) to hook up again, to my disappointment they didn't, again.

i caught it on hulu. just keep in mind that the season finale was actually episode 9 of the season, nbc just aired it in a weird order. the actual finale was supposed to be the one where kelso quits as the chief of medicine and cox takes over. that's why kelso is back in the medieval episode

I could see them coming back with the current crop of interns (maybe even some cameo appearances from the old cast), but if they ended it here I think that would be fine. If they decided to continue, I'm not really sure what they could do with this new crop that they haven't already done. I for one took the episode title, "My Grand Finale," to mean that the series was over. But I agree that there was no hype for it whatsoever, which is too bad.

That's the impression I got. It was called "My Finale" and with the off camera stuff at the end, one would certainly think so. Plus all of the talk the last few months how so many of the big stars definitely aren't returning (Braff, Reyes, etc.) It might be back I hear with the show centered around the new interns, but as someone else already eluded to, it would then just basically be a completely new show.

As for the episode, I thought it was alright. The ending was really, really great though.

I was so mad because I saw that it would be on but forgot to watch until the last 20 minutes. So I missed 2/3 of the final episode. :(

You can watch it on abc.com

Awesome. Hopefully it isn't too different from the way the show's been. I really just discovered it a few months ago and have been hooked since.
